List of Symptoms

List of symptoms, conditions/problems which Hypnotherapy/ NLP can help

Hypnotherapy is a skilled communication aimed at helping direct a person’s imagination in a way that helps elicit changes in some perceptions, sensations, feelings, thoughts and behaviours.

In a typical hypnotherapy session the hypnotherapist and client will discuss the intended alterations or therapeutic goals desired. The hypnotherapist will ask questions abut previous medical history, general health and lifestyle to decide on the best approach for the individual.

Hypnotherapy may be found to be helpful for those seeking relief from a range of problems and is used alongside a person’s own motivation to seek a desired goal. It is often used to help relieve anxiety, aid sleeping, help to address bedwetting, address attitudes to weight, and help clients achieve behavioural change to help to stop smoking. It may also help with minor skin conditions that are exacerbated by stress and confidence issues, and may also be used to help with confidence in order to help enhance performance in areas such as sport and public speaking. Hypnotherapy may help people to cope with and manage the relief of perceived pain

Hypnotherapy has also been used with both adults and children to help manage the pain associated with irritable bowel. There is evidence to support its use in this condition for both adults and children and the National Institute for Health and Clinical Guidance (NICE) recommends the NHS should consider referring patients for hypnotherapy if their irritable bowel is persistent and has failed to respond to simple prescribed medicine.

The following are among symptoms for which Georgina has been requested for emotional/ psychological help to change their perspective on fear and focus on well-being:-

ABUSE
Emotional, physical or sexual maltreatment.

AGORAPHOBIA
Irrational fear of being in a situation where escape is difficult or impossible, e.g. crowded public places, like markets, shopping centres, churches, buses etc. Increasing nervousness the further they travel from their own home.

ALCOHOLISM
